About this tour
This session walks Hornstull's weekend flea market, set up along the waterfront in what was once a more industrial part of the city. You see stalls that return to the same spot week after week. I explain how this corner of Stockholm built its current identity around markets like this one.
We move stall by stall at a relaxed pace, since browsing is really the point on a weekend morning here. I take questions as we go, drawing on years working bars in the area. The tone stays informal, closer to a regular's own weekend routine.
This suits anyone who enjoys flea markets or wants a less polished side of the city. It also pairs well with the evening bars session for a fuller day and night in the area.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
